Maine (WABI) - "Senator #SusanCollins announced Wednesday that the University of Maine’s funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture has been restored.

"On Monday the University received notice that funding from the USDA was paused.

"According to UMS, the notice stated the pause was temporary while the USDA evaluated potential follow-up actions related to prospective Title VI (6) or Title IX (9) violations.

"Collins released at statement saying:

'This USDA funding is critically important not only to the University of Maine, but to our farmers and loggers, as well as to the many people who work in #Maine’s #agriculture, #aquaculture, and #forestry industries. Now that funding has been restored, the work that the University does in partnership with the many people and communities who depend on these programs can continue.'"

Some dedicated folks in #AugustaMaine showed up for the #50501Movement protest today -- despite the original organizers backing out because of threats from "bad actors". Kudos to those hardy souls who showed up anyways! (And who are there until 8pm tonight)

#AntiTrump protest draws hundreds to #Maine State House Wednesday

"I went to bed and woke up in a different country," said one protester.

Anti-Trump protest in Augusta still on despite confusion

Two organizers dropped out, but the event, part of a nationwide day of protest, is still set for noon at the State House.

"A protest against President Donald Trump scheduled for Wednesday afternoon at the State House is expected to go on, despite its two official organizers canceling because of “bad actors looking to spread hate, misinformation, and turmoil.”

"Protests are expected the same day at state capitals across the country in response to orders made by President Trump in his first two weeks of his second term, as well as #Project2025, a playbook by the conservative #HeritageFoundation for changing American government and society whose contributors have been hired throughout the Trump administration.

"The protest is scheduled between noon-8 p.m.

"#KennebecCountyDemocrats and a group called the #WomensMarchAugusta, Maine, both took out permits for the protest and were set to act as co-sponsors.

"However, on Tuesday both groups rescinded their official involvement in the event 'out of an abundance of caution.'

"'The event planned for tomorrow has been infiltrated by bad actors looking to spread hate, misinformation, and turmoil,' the group said in a post on its Facebook page.

“'We have pulled our permit with the Capitol Police and any one who shows up will be considered on their own. People should know we expect bad actors to show up to cause havoc please be vigilant and careful if you do decide to go anyway,' said the post.

"However, another community member has since secured a permit, so the protest is still on."
